Lemon Ricotta Rigatoni

Light, creamy, refreshing. This dish is wonderful when you want a pasta that will leave you satisfied but not too heavy. Yes there is a ton of cream and cheese in it, but the lemon and arugula act as a source of acid to brighten the dish up – really complementing each other. You couldContinue reading “Lemon Ricotta Rigatoni”

Easy Ramen Stir Fry

I am all about those easy, homemade lunches during the week. I fortunately have the luxury of working from home and have the ability to make lunch during the day.

Crispy Tacos with Chipotle Sauce

Tacos in all forms are delicious – I tend to lean towards soft tacos, but these crispy tacos are hard to pass up! These are baked in the oven, so they are much healthier than a fried version and they could even be made in the air fryer. I opted for the oven though sinceContinue reading “Crispy Tacos with Chipotle Sauce”

Sesame Chicken

Better than takeout sesame chicken is all you need tonight. Skip that doordash or drive thru and make this for dinner instead. This is not your Panda Express order, in fact it is so much better!

White Chicken Chili

Soup season isn’t over just yet. March is quickly approaching, but there is still time to make this comforting bowl of chicken chili. Full of roasted poblanos, white beans, corn and tender chicken. Even better if you top it with shredded cheese, sour cream and avocado! The only thing missing here is some warm cornbreadContinue reading “White Chicken Chili”

Tomato Soup + Grilled Cheese Dunkers

Nothing says comfort to me like grilled cheese and tomato soup. I used to eat this when I was sick, when we had snow days, or when I just wanted something tasty. The version I ate growing up came from a can and from plastic wrapped cheese, but this recipe will still give you theContinue reading “Tomato Soup + Grilled Cheese Dunkers”

Italian Sausage Rigatoni

Okay, so I tricked y’all a bit in the title – this recipe is actually made with ground turkey instead of sausage BUT I season it in a way that makes it taste exactly like Italian sausage, just without all the fat and calories. This is the perfect recipe when you want something comforting butContinue reading “Italian Sausage Rigatoni”

French Onion Soup

Surprisingly, I have never had french onion soup but don’t let that turn you away from this recipe! Typically if I am going to eat soup at a restaurant I opt for tomato, even though I love onions and cheese. Even though I have never had the soup, doesn’t mean I can’t cook the hellContinue reading “French Onion Soup”
